The Women of TNA

Awesome Kong wanted to leave for quite some time.

Gail Kim wanted more money but TNA wouldn't give it to her so she bounced.

ODB quit.

really? Because lately the matches have been good.

It was good when they first started it up and Kong was running wild. Then it got ok. Last year it got crap. It's still crap in 2011.

SAY IT AGAIN SAY IT AGAIN! CRAPPP I couldnt have said it any better than that.

Thats what happens when you let Eric Bishoff run a wrestling company. Did anyone find the wcw womens wrestling to be all that appealing? I know I didn't. He was good at booking the nitro girls in the beginning as pure eye candy and filler segments, but when he delved into womens wrestling he used those same models as wrestlers.

Now he comes into a company that has superb female talent and runs the majority of them off. It's the Beautiful Chumps and a few jobbers.

I will give him credit for this new Winter storyline since I find that interesting, but must every god damn storyline involve the Beautiful People? Seriously?

i dunno matches have been pretty good imo. that cage match tara vs mickey was pretty bad ass. some of the gail kim matches were really epic but overall the division is as strong as it's been since then. i wouldn't say it's quite as good as the time you are talking but you have tara, sarita, love, mickey, and actually imo velvet i think has improved a lot. winter has actually been good and then you still have madison who has improved a ton since she first came in. so the roster imo is as solid now as when gail and kong were there.

Tara, Mickie, Sarita, and Angelina all consistently put on good matches last year.

other than the ones darwin mentions and the nice winter angle, the knockouts turned into a sad divas knockoff...

Does anyone remember when the men of TNA actualy got in the ring and wrestled good matches? Why did they change it up? Christopher Daniels, Christian,LAX and a list of others used to put up some great matches and it was more about the action now its more about how they look rather than how they wrestle,WHY?

Fix'd.

Well they should fire madyon rayne,she is worthless,unknown & not very good looking and since she's been around the division has went south....I still like to watch Mickie & Angelina though

Honestly, outside of the Tag Teams, few people in the TNA roster have put up legit great matches as of late. Male or Female.


As for the females... Well, IMO, they need to find some better workers. Sarita has been the only KO I've enjoyed consistently. Hopefully, Divina Fly can help out.

Sarita, Mickie, and Winter are the only KO's worth keeping around in the ring. Madison is a good worker and a pretty decent wrestler so she isn't a big offense to keep and the same can be said for Love. I can understand WHY Velvet steps into the ring, but I would prefer not...but then again I don't really care. The odd one out is grandma who turns 40 in a few days and is just awful. Not as bad as she was in 2010, but still terrible.

The Knockouts Division went to shit in 2010 when all the good talent were leaving and TNA were left with The Beautiful People. Things are getting better now that Mickie James is in the company and other wrestlers are getting better opportunities to get involved in matches (see: Sarita).

At least Lacey Botch Erich is gone.

Firing someone who is unknown? Its thinking like that that has the wrestling business in the position its currently in. So I guess back in the early 2000's when it was time for WWE roster cuts you would have said "fire Cena, Batista, and Orton" because they are unknown right? Also, Madison is known to the TNA fan base. I have seen and heard the reactions she gets on the road...she is over. Madison is also one of the most all around improved wrestlers TNA has had in the last year or so. Her promos are better, she has developed her gimmick, her wrestling, and her work.

Madison Rayne isn't tearing the house down in the ring, but then again she doesn't need to. I don't need all my wrestlers flying around and doing planchas, someone needs to stay on the ground, act bitchy, and scream. Madison Rayne brings more to the table then someone like Tara until you, fans like you, and TNA see that then the business will never move forward.

I never had a problems with the KOs, when it started they had Roxxi and Rhaka Khan, then they had Daffney, then Tara and now Katie Lea, there's nothing wrong with it

Yeah. Let them fire one of their only bright spots in the division that actually has a personality.

Remember the days when Kong and Kim was like the best thing in TNA? And when Hamada put Daffney through a table via moonsault? and Roxxi would literally do anything for the company (get busted open, have her head shaved)? Ah, memories.

God I was watching Kong/Kim from Final Resolution 08...fucking goosebumps.
